Time to revalue council tax?
Time to revalue council tax? English & Scottish homes' council tax bands still rely on rushed valuations by estate agents driving past in 1991, and haven't been touched since, leaving 400,000 homes in the wrong band (see council tax rebanding to check yours). Last week, the govt. ruled out a full-scale revaluation worried some would move up bands (others would of course be lowered) Which of these is closest to your view?

We try to use technology to limit voting to one per person. Occasionally, this may erroneously block a few people's votes (eg, from shared offices). Apologies for that.
